Swift Codable with Different Array Types

问题

I'm writing a program where I'm parsing JSON data that includes array of arrays, where the nested arrays have different object types (specifically, [[String, String, Int]]). For example,

{
"number": 5295,
"bets": [
    [
        "16",
        "83",
        9
    ],
    [
        "75",
        "99",
        4
    ],
    [
        "46",
        "27",
        5
    ]
]
}

I'm trying to use codable to help me parse the data, but when I try something like

struct OrderBook: Codable {
    let number: Int
    let bets: [Bet]
}

struct Bet: Codable {
    let price: String
    let sale: String
    let quantity: Int
}

it gives me errors saying that

Expected to decode Dictionary<String, Any> but found an array instead

How do I get around this? I can't declare an array of empty type.

One solution (assuming you can't change the JSON) is to implement custom decoding logic for Bet. You can use an unkeyed container (which reads from a JSON array) in order to decode each of the properties in turn (the order in which you call decode(_:) is the order they're expected to appear in the array).

import Foundation

struct OrderBook : Codable {
  let number: Int
  let bets: [Bet]
}

struct Bet : Codable {
  let price: String
  let sale: String
  let quantity: Int

  init(from decoder: Decoder) throws {
    var container = try decoder.unkeyedContainer()
    self.price = try container.decode(String.self)
    self.sale = try container.decode(String.self)
    self.quantity = try container.decode(Int.self)
  } 

  // if you need encoding (if not, make Bet Decodable
  // and remove this method)
  func encode(to encoder: Encoder) throws {
    var container = encoder.unkeyedContainer()
    try container.encode(price)
    try container.encode(sale)
    try container.encode(quantity)
  }
}

Example decoding:

let jsonString = """
{ "number": 5295, "bets": [["16","83",9], ["75","99",4], ["46","27",5]] }
"""

let jsonData = Data(jsonString.utf8)

do {
  let decoded = try JSONDecoder().decode(OrderBook.self, from: jsonData)
  print(decoded)
} catch {
  print(error)
}

// OrderBook(number: 5295, bets: [
//   Bet(price: "16", sale: "83", quantity: 9),
//   Bet(price: "75", sale: "99", quantity: 4),
//   Bet(price: "46", sale: "27", quantity: 5)
// ])
